Description Source [link]

Wrap-around Spider is so named for its habit of wrapping itself around a twig or flattening itself against bark. The upper surface of the abdomen resembles a cone shaped shield. It is composed mostly of a series of roughly circular discs each with a small slit in the centre. The lower surface of the abdomen is curved. These spiders rest during the day and build large vertical orb webs at night.

Would you just look at the beautiful textures of her camouflage~~ She's simply stunning!


(NOTE: Given that females are dominant in most, if not al,l spider species I have a habit of refering to them all as female.)
